Parity symmetry as a diagnostic for spin-precessing binary-black-hole waveform models
Héctor Estellés, Sascha Husa, Eleanor Hamilton +3
Parity invariance of general relativity imposes exact relations between waveforms and remnant properties of binary-black-hole configurations related by reversal of the in-plane spi…
LIGO A: Detector Design and Science Prospects Beyond A+
L. Sun, K. Kuns, B. J. J. Slagmolen +1153
We present the LIGO A detector concept, an upgrade for the LIGO observatories based on room-temperature interferometers beyond the fifth observing run (O5). Building on th…
A stepping stone toward detecting gravitational wave memory: a cumulative analysis with the full spherical harmonic using events from GWTC-4.0 and GWTC-5.0
Maria Rosselló-Sastre, Sascha Husa, Yumeng Xu +3
We perform Bayesian model selection to test for the presence of the spherical harmonic mode in gravitational wave events that have previously been identified as bina…
Remnant recoil and host environments of GWTC-4.0 binary black-hole mergers
Joan Llobera-Querol, Eleanor Hamilton, Neha Singh +8
Determining the astrophysical origin of binary black holes and whether merger remnants are retained in their birth environments is essential for understanding hierarchical mergers…
LISA science ground segment conventions
Quentin Baghi, Stanislas Babak, Leor Barack +22
This document sets out the conventions used for data simulations, waveforms, and analysis pipelines within the Distributed Data Processing Centre (DDPC) of the Laser Interferometer…
Parameter estimation for the GWTC-4.0 catalog with phenomenological waveform models that include orbital eccentricity and an updated description of spin precession
Yumeng Xu, Jorge Valencia, Héctor Estellés Estrella +11
The GWTC-4.0 catalog of transient gravitational wave signals describes observations made in the first part of the fourth observing run of the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA (LVK) gravitational w…
